unlist

Pull from directory

To unlist something is to remove it from a list or directory where it was previously included.

You might unlist a phone number to make it private, or unlist a video so it won't appear in search results: I unlisted the video until I could fix the audio.

On platforms like YouTube, unlisted content remains accessible via direct link but won't be publicly discoverable.
